French people, what is the correct way to eat a croissant?

Do you break off pieces, spread jam, dip into coffee, and eat? Do you take a bite, add jam, and repeat? Do you even add jam? Do you just dunk the whole thing into your coffee?

You throw it in a direction and then run in the opposite direction.

I think they really like putting butter on them. I keep reading about butter shortages in France currently. They are freaking out and hoarding it, apparently.

Typically they are already buttery so I enjoy just dipping in coffee or plain. Comes down to preferance.

Meatball is totally different. It's soft, and therefore only need a fork to eat it.
There are debates on if you should eat pizza with your hands or with a fork and knife.
There are many "stupid" questions like this.

Croissants are different because there is a lot of room for interpretation. I am in full autist mode about it because I am autistically obsessed with how foods should be eaten in their most popular countries. That is why I'm asking. I want to stir clear of the amerifat interpretations I normally see here for a French perspective.

I don't think there are many French people in this thread. I suspect it's largely just normal people telling you that you're a retard.

My favorite way is to split them in half, put a layer of Dijon, few slices of good ham (if it comes in a plastic package and there is liquid at the bottom, buy better ham) and some gruyere or appenzeller. Wrap in foil and bake at 350 for a little bit.

I don't think it's the "right" way, but it beats jam
